CAPTAIN DONNELLY CONGRAT~ The release of the steamer Rapids Prince from the ledge of rock in| the Lachine Rapids by the Donnelly | Saturday 'is a signal engineering success on the part of Captain John Donnelly, of this city, and one that adds much to his reputation as a hy- draulic engineer. As a Kingston man we congratulate him. Mr. Donnelly is widely known for his achievements in the past, but his latest venture attracted the at- tention of the whole continent, be- cause of the stupendous odds against him. He was called upon to save the steamer which became lodged on a shelf of rock In the rapids where the water rushed down the river at thirty-five miles an hour, and the work was attended with great peril. : The cable could not ba carried to the vessel and had to be After several at- tempts, to stretch the cabel from the engine on the island to the steamet the work was accomplished, and so Sccurate was Mr. Donnelly's judg ment that when he started his en- gine Winding up the cable on the is- land, the steamer came off the rocks Jnto the channel without mishap. This is perhaps the greatest fea' of its kind Mr. Donnelly has heen He has, during a long career, salvaged vessels sunk and aground amounting to milHons of dollars in value, but none under conditions similar to that in which the Rapids Prince was placed. NO CASTLE, NO WEDDING, With that touch of nature which makes the whole world kin, those young couples of humble rank or of no rank at all, who are deterred from marriage by high rents, will sympathize with the crown prince of Denmark and Princess Olga of Greece, who have : been obliged to postpone their wedding bechuse thay cannot find a castle for rent in all Denmark at a price within the means of the prince. Denmark is' reported as full of empty castles, but their owners, like property owners of other lands, Many a gman never realizes what poor worm:of the dust be is until | * i gets married. | Solomon *in his day was | bly called & poor boob for say- ig something smart. | Many persons would soon lose in- est in newspapers if they could 'find fault with them. the reasons. that could he ned are never enough for a | making a fool of himself.

They ars probably waiting for a revival of the profession of royalty and a raise in the salaries of scions of royal houses which will cause a boom in the rent al of castles. Just as the young people of many other families have been obliged to do, the young prince and princess are said to be considering getting married anyway, and going to live with some of their relatives, despite the tradition that a young couple should start housekeeping alone. This time it is the aunt of the prince, the Dowager Empress Marie of Russia, who has come to the res: cue of the young couple by offering to have an apartment in her own castle in Copenhagen fitted up for them, A COLONIZATION PROJECT. The Western Canada Colonisation Association, in close co-operation with the federal and Imperial gov- ways, have' worked out a well-mat-~ ured land settlement policy, which is to be put into effect forthwith--. a policy which carries the backing and co-ordinates thé colonization ac: tivities of these governments and railways, and of other Immigration agencies.
